The Type 56 is a type of container ship from the Sietas shipyard in Hamburg-Neuenfelde . From 1967 to 1968 three units of this series were built.
history
The lead ship of the series was ordered by the shipping company Gerd Ritscher from Moorende and was earmarked for long-term charter to the Irish Bell Lines . It was on November 1, 1967 the name of Jonny Ritscher from the pile and was on 12 December 1967, the name Bell Victor delivered from the shipyard. After the Bell Lines charter ended, the ship was given its original name back in 1978. After several changes of ownership, it went to a US buyer on May 20, 1987, who transferred it to the Caribbean and initially sold it to Kormoran Shipowners Ltd. as Cavalier Clipper . registered in Nassau ( Bahamas ). The ship was then resold and renamed several times. It has been called Niky since 2014 .
The second Type 56 ship to be delivered on December 30, 1967, was the Teesland , ordered by the Hamburg shipping company Aug. Bolten Wm. Miller's successor , which was a Bell Volunteer during a Bell Lines charter from spring 1971 to May 1972 . In October 1993, the Teesland was sold to the Argentine shipping company Lineas Feeder SA, which initially used it under the name Paraguay Feeder on the Río Paraná and Río Paraguay between Buenos Aires (Argentina) and Asunción ( Paraguay ). Since 2002 the ship with the changed name Paraguay Line has been on this route. On March 31, 2016, the Paraguay Line collided with two barges on the Río Paraná and ran aground. During the repair, the ship was equipped with an additional wheelhouse above the bridge .
The third ship in the series was the Ragna , which was delivered to the Hamburg shipping company Osterwisch & Sohn on October 12, 1968. In 1981 the ship went to the Hamburg shipping company Harry Maciej, which renamed it Eurotainer . After another change of ownership, the Eurotainer was sold to a US shipowner in June 1988, who renamed it Cavalier Trader to Eurotainer Shipowners Ltd. registered in Nassau. The ship was scrapped in 2007 as an Arawak Trader in Jacksonville, Florida .
technology
The Type 56 was manufactured in sectional construction and is largely based on the Type 54 that was created in early 1967 . The three ships built have a total length of 74.55 m each (67.00 m Lpp , 70.81 m freeboard length ) and a width of 13.02 m. Its height from the keel to the upper deck is 6.05 m, the maximum draft 3.71 m. Upon delivery, they were measured at 499 GRT and 1,160 dwt ( Jonny Ritscher and Teesland ) or 1,165 dwt ( Ragna ). In 1995 the Arawak Clipper (formerly Jonny Ritscher ) with 1,278 GT and the Arawak Trader (former Ragna ) with 1,265 GT were remeasured . The ships of the series are each powered by a 1,500 hp eight-cylinder four-stroke diesel engine from the manufacturer Klöckner-Humboldt-Deutz (KHD), which acts on a fixed propeller via a reduction gear .
The Type 56 was designed for the transport of a maximum of 80 20-foot standard containers (TEU). Because the original design provided for the stowage of only one layer of containers on deck, the ships have a relatively low deckhouse . In order to be able to stow a second container layer on deck and thus increase the capacity to a maximum of 120 TEU, the Ragna was equipped with an additional wheelhouse before delivery, which was integrated into the front of the funnel above the bridge . Although the Jonny Ritscher and the Teesland were not retrofitted accordingly and the line of sight from the bridge was therefore restricted, they too were later used on voyages with two TEU or FEU layers on deck. The Paraguay Line (formerly Jonny Ritscher ) received a second wheelhouse in 2016 in order to be able to stow two deck layers of high-cube containers (2.90 m instead of 2.59 m high).
